Hawks: “I’m just terrible at holding back how I feel” Translation: “I’ve been putting up a front my whole damn life, I’m gonna take every chance I can get to be honest”
Hawks is one of the most contradictory characters in the series. He is a man that goes outside of the norm of an average hero but he also works the most with the government. He is a man who doesn't hold back but is also an expert liar. He believes hero society should have treated people like twice better and yet is willing to kill him. I think that hawks in many ways shows how messed up this system and really hope that he survives the current arc for further development.
I think that's the duality of Hawks the public know him as this laid back joker always quipping and being cool with fans saying whats on his mind when in reality he's a uber competent pragmatic spy and assassin that will take any measure to complete his mission thats what makes him interesting.
He's not contradictory. He's just a dude. A person. Annoyed at heroes doing it for fame while being Idealistic himself, being sympathetic to villains but with a strong loyalty to his agency.
I think all the hate Hawks is getting is dumb and one-sided. Twice is a cool character, and I really liked him, but the moment he refused to surrender was the moment he had to go because of how big of a threat he was to innocent people. I don't think he was a bad guy, but his overwhelming loyalty and devotion that he had for his comrades were extremely dangerous and easily exploitable. Don't forget that he was a part of a criminal organization with someone like Shigaraki at the reigns who only wants destruction. From what I see, Hawks is the type of hero who would corrupt himself for the greater good; a world where heroes have too much time on their hands. Although it might seem contradictory, Hawks had to kill Twice out of necessity because he would've inevitably been a major threat to innocent lives.
Bro, I think everyone gets that. The so called hate is more of a anger stage of grieve (it is one of the five stages) than anything and, since Hawks dealt the killing blow, it goes to him. In other words, people are just mourning, no need to explain what you did because of that. By the way, the fact that people are mourning Twice this much just goes to show how likeable, popular and overall good of a character he was. I relly liked him as well.
I’ve always loved Hawk’s character, but the most endearing thing to me is that he had an Endeavor plushie and his idol is Endeavor. Not All Might. *Endeavor.* And that is more compelling to me than even Izuku’s (and the world’s) fixation with All Might. *Everyone* looks up to All Might. But I gotta love the one person who’s like, “But I like _______ better.” Boom. One reason why Hawks is my fav character. I could go on...
for some reason i’ve loved gang orca ever since he was introduced he definitely my favorite hero and bc of that i don’t really understand the hype around all might so i understand hawks lol
Yeah. Many of the characters idolize all might but it’s cool when you hear of a character who’s fav isn’t all might. It helps them stand out more as well.
Design, personnality, writing, narrative purpose and use, dialogues, relationships with other characters and their own development, backstory, heroic ideals... Yup, 10/10 on this one, horikoshi
@@mirvk0 I meant his point of view upon his job and the hero society. To me one of the most interesting aspects of mha is the problematic of this hero society and heroism that each character symbolizes (being All Might, Deku, Endeavor, Ochaco, Stain, Kirishima, Mirio... each character embodies an aspect of what the term "hero" could be in this universe). And Hawks ideal of a world where heroes can be bored, his admiration for endeavor's efforts, and his keen eye concerning the need of a symbol of piece and thus the role he plays in endeavors' ascension.
Hawks isn't just a reference to Angel, but he also takes traits from Robin. He's the light-hearted, bird-themed foil to the prickly Endeavor, who is basically the Batman to All Might's Superman. His attractiveness and carefree attitude in the field are traits that fit Dick Grayson when he's Nightwing. However, his perceptiveness is similar to Tim Drake, the Third Robin, who also looked up to Batman as a kid like Hawks looked up to Endeavor.
All Might: Smashes. Hawks: Knows everything going on at the scene and the surrounding neighborhoods, and is simultaneously taking the trash out at home, saving some pedestrians from a drunk driver, stopping a robbery, and walking the dog mid-fight with the League of Villains. Hawks: Is ranked lower than All Might.
To be fair hawks isn't even trying to be high ranked. He doesn't care and was barely trying. Im not sure if he could be more popular than all might if he tried (that's a tall order even for him) but he definitely couldve beaten endeavour in ranking if he tried.
I'm so glad that a character in BNHA is a pro hero, but didn't go to U.A. High. It makes the universe more believable. Edit: Fatgum too! (he's my fave pro personally)
God I’m scared of the icarus thing. I can’t lose Hawks. I’m just building on the fact that he is one of the creators favourite characters. Please! (Kill Mineta if you have to kill someone)
If he must somehow do harm to Hawks.. I would hope he puts him out of commission for a bit. It makes sense it Tokoyami does succeed in saving him. But I hope this isn’t the end for him. There’s a lot of information that Hawks knows that the Hero Public Safety Committee needs as well as the heroes. And they should be outed for taking advantage of heroes like Hawks. Who knows who else they have tried to train and do this to?
KutieTenshi45 my personal theory; Dabi aka. Touya Todoroki. I think that endeavour might have signed him up for the Programm but Touyas body couldn’t take it. And what happens to the ones that just can’t take it? They get rid of them. Maybe they thought he was dead but he survived and ended up becoming a villain. This would explain his burning (sry couldn’t help myself) hatred for hero society and the committee in general. This would also explain that he introduced hawks to the league in the first place. If they knew each other from the program, Dabi knows that Hawks went through the same thing, which is why it would be reasonable for him to share a secret hatred for the committee. Hawks just might not remember Dabi (and I mean he has changed his look and probably his demeanour quite significantly) also he could just believe that he is dead, which is probably what he was told (like he burned himself to death, he died during one of the training sessions or something)
Theory time. Hawks is attractive.. some people call that "hot" ya know what else is hot, fire. You know what's weak to fire Hawk's wings you know what wings allow people to do, fly Fly, another term for fly is drip. Hawks is hot and has drip You know what else drips, WAX. Icarus' wings were wax before they melted to the sun THEREFORE, DABI IS TOYA BIG BRAIN
“He’s also just really hot... so I don’t want him to die.” Why can I relate to this on so many levels? I have seen some haters out there too with the whole Twice situation. I mean, Hawks is a hero. He’s doing his job even if it hurts him. Not enough people understand that when you’re a hero your feelings can’t be exactly your main drive. Your feelings can’t be something that stops you from doing what’s right. Hawks understands that. But generally, he’s my favorite character and I absolutely love his design and everything. Great video 🤍
NOOOO HAWKS CANT DIE HE JUST CANT he’s literally my favorite character and im actually gonna freak out if he dies in MHA like you can’t just make a very well written hot dynamic character and just “end him” likeeee I can’t odmdnfnf
Hello, idk if anyone else caught onto this but I think another element of Hawks' design (the blond angel with red wings) is inspired by the Tarot card for Temperance. According to Google, the temperance card means one must learn balance, moderation, and that one must avoid extremes and take the middle road. The upright way predicts balance, moderation, harmony and the reverse card predicts illness, disharmony, and lack of patience. Everything sums up Hawks fairly well.
Ikr. More of an obvious comparison than Angel from X-Men. Hawks is literally Icarus (the boy with wings) who is flying to high/close to the sun (Endeavor)
@@thedivingbell_ he's on the wrong thread, I just came back from that very thread, they're debating whether it'll be considered cannibalism if Tokoyami ate chicken
Hawks is like the perfect spy in the series, and he's really a huge fan of endeavor. It's crazy how skilled his quirk is and wants to make the world a lot easier for everyone.
“With just a bird aesthetic to him.. *he* *also* *decided* *to* *make* *him* *the* *hottest* *looking* *character* *in* *the* *series* *just* *to* *spite* *everyone* *who* *questioned* *him* _Don’t_ _deny_ _Horikoshi_ _and_ _his_ _love_ _for_ _bird_ _people_ “ I’ve been waiting for someone to say this in these Hawks facts videos
"...to him, what we need is ten Endeavors." When I heard that I immediately imagined them somehow converting Twice or someone with a quirk like his to heroism to make a Top 10 filled with Endeavor. Just standing there. Menacingly.
Hawks is 100% my favourite character in this series. Him for pretty much every single reason you can come up with, and Kaminari just cause he is the lightning boy. All lightning boys are the shit.
Stand Name: [WHEN DOVES CRY] Stand Master: Hawks Stats: Range: B Speed:A Destructive power:D Developmental potential: E Precision: B Durability: D Power: When Doves Cry has the ability to amplify an emotion or idea in someone when they're struck by Hawks' feathers. The emotion has to have occurred to the target sometime in the last hour, and when the ability activates it brings that idea to the surface. A side affect of his ability is that affected targets will see Hawks as the foremost representation of their idea. He can use this to sway people into liking him or distract people during fights. Hawks can pick the thought, but only if he knows that his target has had said thought. He can't read people's minds. If he doesn't know a specific thought, the amplification will bring out a random thought, selected from the last hour. The ability has no set range, but it the effect begins to fade after a day. However, the effect isn't dispelled entirely until after 6 weeks.
@Mistake 119 It’s similar, yeah. But this one’s more subtle, focusing more on how the target reacts to the reoccurring thought than the actual sensation itself. This is more about thoughts or ideas than sensations or feelings.
6:53 this moment is really funny to me because Hawks, well established to be cunning, intelligent, well trained in espionage, and always aware of the situation, when asked by a kid he basically just met "what's your weakness?" just flat out tells him, right out there in the open like it's nbd. Just a super spy being like "well lemme tell ya kid if you really wanted to kill me here's how you'd do it!" I suppose he's lucky this actually ended up saving his life in the end.
Hawks hands down is one of, if not my favorite character(s). Thanks for doing this video, I didn’t gain any new info from it, however it was nice to hear of all his feats all in one go. I’m actually in the middle of drawing a fan art of him, and it’s the most complicated drawing I’ve ever done. Those wings aren’t a joke if you actually take the wings of a real hawk as a reference..lol.
i think Hawk's first name Keigo is a direct contradiction of the "honorifics" saying as to how bold and outspoken he is... i really love his character. thank you Horikoshi!
Now seeing the desc, I actually did start to read the manga because of hawks. I thought he was a really cool character so I was like " Fuck it, I'm finding an online bnha manga " I feel really bad for him though, I don't know exactly why but from what I tell myself already I assume he probably has depression or some major issues with one thing or another, it's not hard to guess seeing that he's probably under a lot of pressure living a side life and trying to keep everything a secret. If I had to deal with that I would probably be extremely self destructive of my health. I don't know why I feel so bad for someone who doesn't exist, it's kinda stupid but a lot of these things remind me of some of the problems I have. I mean, I've always been the kind of person to help others with their problems, it's almost like I'm fixing my own when I do, if that makes any sense ¯\_( ' -- ' )_/¯ Ah well anyway, I should probably get my dumbass to bed because it's 4:00am. Have a good afternoon.
same, I read the manga just to see hawks. Also, feeling empathy for fictional characters is totally normal, shows you have empathy, and it's a sign that the author is a genius :D
Besides manipulating Twice and then later killing him, using Tokoyami to gather intel on UA then sure! He did nothing wrong! But that’s just the beauty of his greyness.
Absolutely love Hawks ❤❤ He's such a complex character and I just wanna give him a long hug full of love, pamper him and so much more. I wish he could have peace... everytime I think of his suffering my heart clenches 😭
I love him so much. He just has so much to his character. Sadly, more than half of these comments points out that he’s hot. I wish the fandom would see way more in him than that.
The duality of his quirk suits him so well- the flashy, fast, sharp form of feathers is what everyone sees, but it's actually more important that they can be used subtly to gather information. Without the sensory ability he couldn't use feathers without looking directly at them and even then they would be very imprecise because he couldn't feel the air currents that would push on them.
I like twice, and i am sad that he's gone but Hawks had to do it. And its amazing bc Hawks actually said that he wants to help twice if only he gives up. I can imagine that if they were in another world(sksksks ) they would be good friends 😣
Meti: hawks is really hot Ms: I second that I have a crippling crush on Hawks 😂 I'll admit, I never had a huge crush on Levi like everyone else did so uh... Hawks to me is what Levi is to everyone else. Although, if you also like hawks, I will happily fangirl over him with you 😂
I like how we've been getting more "Glory of..." Videos lately. I love they "Beauty of..." Videos, but these ones feature some really badass characters.
I’ve been waiting for you to do a video like this on Hawks since I first subbed, very good video...Hawks definitely is my favorite character in terms of how dynamic and contradictory he is, absolutely fascinating and one of bnha’s best written characters
A year later, Hawks is still alive and the fate of him dying before revealing Dabi's identity is gone as Dabi himself gave it away anyway for his personal plan
Bruh the minute I saw Dabi's eyes in the anime, I was like,,,, wait a minute that's my bb boi shoto's eye color,,, this must be something HAAHAHAHAHAHA and I was right lmao
You forgot to mention that the diamond symbol on his shirt is the symbol of the Hero Public Safety Commission!! There's something so creepy about that,,,
Wonder how scary he would have been with a bird head
Chambers lol
Then that would further reinforce the theory that Tokoyami is his secret love child
basically tokoyami on steroids

"Hes just..really hot so i dont want him to die"
boI I KNOW THE FEELING-
"he is really hot so i don't want him to die"
:thinking:
Istg Hawks looks high 24/7 you can’t convince me that he doesn’t smoke a few blunts whenever he can
He said his ideal world would mean ''having time to kill, laying back and rolling up a joint'' lmao
I love how laid back he is, he still does his job well despite that and I really like him
You have no idea how long I was sitting just waiting for him to say "Icarus"
Ikr. More of an obvious comparison than Angel from X-Men. Hawks is literally Icarus (the boy with wings) who is flying to high/close to the sun (Endeavor)
WilliamAllen52 The sun can also be Dabi
@@jehjeh7 Those pesky Todorokis lol
Hawks has to be the most well-written character in MHA, no kidding.
Him and Endeavour are up there
〜B l u e H a w a i i〜 that’s like saying if eagles eat chickens it’s cannibal
@@sebastianvaladez2796 it's not cannibal lol
What does this means tho?
He's a very close second behind Mirio for me
@@thedivingbell_ he's on the wrong thread, I just came back from that very thread, they're debating whether it'll be considered cannibalism if Tokoyami ate chicken
I love the duality of his character, the tension between his easy going chaotic side and his intense loyal spy side
Hawks is like the perfect spy in the series, and he's really a huge fan of endeavor. It's crazy how skilled his quirk is and wants to make the world a lot easier for everyone.
“With just a bird aesthetic to him.. *he* *also* *decided* *to* *make* *him* *the* *hottest* *looking* *character* *in* *the* *series* *just* *to* *spite* *everyone* *who* *questioned* *him*
_Don’t_ _deny_ _Horikoshi_ _and_ _his_ _love_ _for_ _bird_ _people_ “
I’ve been waiting for someone to say this in these Hawks facts videos
"...to him, what we need is ten Endeavors."
When I heard that I immediately imagined them somehow converting Twice or someone with a quirk like his to heroism to make a Top 10 filled with Endeavor.
Just standing there.
Menacingly.
This is funny
Hawks is 100% my favourite character in this series. Him for pretty much every single reason you can come up with, and Kaminari just cause he is the lightning boy. All lightning boys are the shit.
The minute I first saw hawks on screen I knew I had a new favorite character.
Let’s hope he doesn’t end his time in the series as the ‘hottest looking character’.
you could say he is...
To hot for his own good...
"He's also really hot so I don't want him to die" me
Also I just love how much the series makes you question what makes you question who your rooting for.
hes the living embodiment of how my hero academia skillfully subverts our expectations
There’s a restaurant in my home town called “Wing Daddy”........let that sink in
😏
w h a t
Imagine if hawks actually was a villain
Damn...
The hero’s would be fucked more then they are now
@@st1cks_and_crows I imagine slot of nomus and other villains would take out Endeavour and Todoroki for Hawks and then the world is fucked
Image him being dabi partner
Deadass the situation he was in or his past revealed so much. If he wanted to he could of taken the villain path which is crazy
"Hes also really hot so I just dont want him to die... " 😂 screw the whole video, that's the primary reason we don't want him to die.
17:38 “He’s also... really hot, so I just don’t want him to die”
*everyone liked that *
“He’s also the hottest looking character in the entire series.” I mean....where’s the lie?
The Bunny hero number 5, and Midnight.
@@crazyscotsman9327
I don't think Midnight quite measures up here...
@@crazyscotsman9327 idk how people even like her. Did she get a development before this or is just purely cliché bunny girl appearance?
@@Marnige I think people like her because
1.She's hot
2.She has a fun personality
3.Her awesome fight scene against the high ends
"he is also really hot ... I don't want him to die" SAMEEEE
Stand Name: [WHEN DOVES CRY]
Stand Master: Hawks
Stats:
Range: B
Speed:A
Destructive power:D
Developmental potential: E
Precision: B
Durability: D
Power:
When Doves Cry has the ability to amplify an emotion or idea in someone when they're struck by Hawks' feathers. The emotion has to have occurred to the target sometime in the last hour, and when the ability activates it brings that idea to the surface. A side affect of his ability is that affected targets will see Hawks as the foremost representation of their idea. He can use this to sway people into liking him or distract people during fights. Hawks can pick the thought, but only if he knows that his target has had said thought. He can't read people's minds. If he doesn't know a specific thought, the amplification will bring out a random thought, selected from the last hour. The ability has no set range, but it the effect begins to fade after a day. However, the effect isn't dispelled entirely until after 6 weeks.

Rainy day dream away?
Stand Name: The Eagles
Ability: Surrounds an enemy in razor-sharp feathers. The enemy can check out any time they like but they can never leave.
@Mistake 119 It’s similar, yeah. But this one’s more subtle, focusing more on how the target reacts to the reoccurring thought than the actual sensation itself. This is more about thoughts or ideas than sensations or feelings.
Hawks is actually my favorite hero and always will be he's awesome
Too bad he isn’t hot enough to get a gucci collab
Stan Rohan Kishibe
Yet
"We need ten endeavours" alright hawks that's a little too far
we really do though. more people with the work ethic those two have would be great.
Todorokis worst fear lmao
6:53 this moment is really funny to me because Hawks, well established to be cunning, intelligent, well trained in espionage, and always aware of the situation, when asked by a kid he basically just met "what's your weakness?" just flat out tells him, right out there in the open like it's nbd.
Just a super spy being like "well lemme tell ya kid if you really wanted to kill me here's how you'd do it!"
I suppose he's lucky this actually ended up saving his life in the end.
It's his student man
@@notso_cody Yeah and he was Twice's friend and look how well that worked out
@@GippyHappy they'd be actual friends in another universe
@@notso_cody I’m sure they would, but ultimately it’s still not strategically advantages to tell people your weaknesses about 95% of the time.
I love Hawks, he's cool and dynamic. Also I really dig his design.
He also decided to make him the hottest looking character in the series
Me: OH HELL YA!!! Amen to that. (FYI my favourite character)
"he's also... really hot, so, I just- I just don't want him to die" YUP I HEAR YOU
Hawks hands down is one of, if not my favorite character(s). Thanks for doing this video, I didn’t gain any new info from it, however it was nice to hear of all his feats all in one go. I’m actually in the middle of drawing a fan art of him, and it’s the most complicated drawing I’ve ever done. Those wings aren’t a joke if you actually take the wings of a real hawk as a reference..lol.
Meti to Hawks: You can't die, you're so sexy ahah
Unrelated thought:
If tokoyami decided to eat chicken wings, would it be considered cannibalism?
Crows do eat meat tho, right?
Birds eat other birds
But he also started out human
How closely related are Hawks and Chickens?
Headshredder Stan: this, this is beautiful
He's one of my favorite characters in the whole series, and he is indeed the hottest. Thanks for making a video on best bird Meti.
i think Hawk's first name Keigo is a direct contradiction of the "honorifics" saying as to how bold and outspoken he is... i really love his character. thank you Horikoshi!
Like a phoenix he will rise from the ashes of his crispy chicken wings. PS Hawks is really really hot ;)
Meebo Tokoyami, we beg you, save your beautiful bird big brother!
Now seeing the desc, I actually did start to read the manga because of hawks. I thought he was a really cool character so I was like " Fuck it, I'm finding an online bnha manga "
I feel really bad for him though, I don't know exactly why but from what I tell myself already I assume he probably has depression or some major issues with one thing or another, it's not hard to guess seeing that he's probably under a lot of pressure living a side life and trying to keep everything a secret.
If I had to deal with that I would probably be extremely self destructive of my health.
I don't know why I feel so bad for someone who doesn't exist, it's kinda stupid but a lot of these things remind me of some of the problems I have. I mean, I've always been the kind of person to help others with their problems, it's almost like I'm fixing my own when I do, if that makes any sense ¯\_( ' -- ' )_/¯
Ah well anyway, I should probably get my dumbass to bed because it's 4:00am. Have a good afternoon.
same, I read the manga just to see hawks. Also, feeling empathy for fictional characters is totally normal, shows you have empathy, and it's a sign that the author is a genius :D
Hes definitely traumatized by smth
Gali ent I’d assume so. I think he had a bad childhood? I’m not too sure I haven’t read the part of the manga yet.
@@PaperBag99287402 You think he had a bad childhood?

He's actually a child soldier
Hawks did nothing wrong
Twice would disagree
HE KILLED TWICE!
He killed our boy Twice, now Toga will have to ration his blood and use his quirk on the heroes.
Hawks x Griffith fanfiction
Besides manipulating Twice and then later killing him, using Tokoyami to gather intel on UA then sure! He did nothing wrong! But that’s just the beauty of his greyness.
Absolutely love Hawks ❤❤
He's such a complex character and I just wanna give him a long hug full of love, pamper him and so much more. I wish he could have peace... everytime I think of his suffering my heart clenches 😭
“He’s also really hot so I don’t want him to die”
I totally agree:)
Hawks is still one of the most underrated characters in all of mha, at least compared to others, and is my personal favorite for all of mha
That is a testament to Horikoshi's art don't let the "hot ones" die.
I love him so much. He just has so much to his character. Sadly, more than half of these comments points out that he’s hot. I wish the fandom would see way more in him than that.
“Plus he’s also _really hot_ so I don’t want him to die”
The duality of his quirk suits him so well- the flashy, fast, sharp form of feathers is what everyone sees, but it's actually more important that they can be used subtly to gather information. Without the sensory ability he couldn't use feathers without looking directly at them and even then they would be very imprecise because he couldn't feel the air currents that would push on them.
After the latest chapter of this video I can’t really get behind Hawks at all but I can appreciate your video about him :).
whys that? (I have read the manga BTW)
TheForgottenProgidy nah twice had it coming
Hawks is definitely one of the characters I like seeing the most
Fun fact: *You have a better chance of getting into Harvard then getting into UA*
I like twice, and i am sad that he's gone but Hawks had to do it. And its amazing bc Hawks actually said that he wants to help twice if only he gives up. I can imagine that if they were in another world(sksksks ) they would be good friends 😣
Meti: hawks is really hot
Ms: I second that
I have a crippling crush on Hawks 😂 I'll admit, I never had a huge crush on Levi like everyone else did so uh...
Hawks to me is what Levi is to everyone else. Although, if you also like hawks, I will happily fangirl over him with you 😂
Omg please fangirl with me (ik it’s late but I don’t have anyone else to fangirl to ☹️)
3:30 "he also decided to make him the hottest character in the series just to spite everyone who questioned him" I LOVE THIS LINE
Being based an Lionel Messi is something I wouldn't have expected from MHA.
Me neighther I was SOO SURPRISED, but also happy, I love Hawks and now he became 10 times more interesting!
Didn't Icarus get his son killed? Oh no, not my little black bird.
Icarus was the son
I gotta say: The SMT Nocturne OST fits perfectly. Great video!
SMIRK
bruh i lost too many brain cells when reading the comments about Twice, Dabi, and Hawks
Hawks look like a Skater/Stoner. Which is cool cause Skater/stoner's are cool people... Generally speaking.
Thank you for this, I needed a good hard laugh
It's canon that he smokes weed, so -
Well glad to see my fav character was also featured somewhat in this video, nice
I like how we've been getting more "Glory of..." Videos lately. I love they "Beauty of..." Videos, but these ones feature some really badass characters.
I’ve been waiting for you to do a video like this on Hawks since I first subbed, very good video...Hawks definitely is my favorite character in terms of how dynamic and contradictory he is, absolutely fascinating and one of bnha’s best written characters
The fact that his past was so horrible and he still became a hero to save people make me love him that much more
Also he’s hot
A year later, Hawks is still alive and the fate of him dying before revealing Dabi's identity is gone as Dabi himself gave it away anyway for his personal plan
"Fans are theorising that Dabi is Touya."
Me: *already read the manga* Hmm yes I wonder
Bruh the minute I saw Dabi's eyes in the anime, I was like,,,, wait a minute that's my bb boi shoto's eye color,,, this must be something HAAHAHAHAHAHA and I was right lmao
You forgot to mention that the diamond symbol on his shirt is the symbol of the Hero Public Safety Commission!! There's something so creepy about that,,,
🎵Higher, the king of the sky
He's flying too fast and he's flying too high
Higher, an eye for an eye
The legend will never die🎵
Dude voiced by Yuichi Nakamura, taking people to restaurants to get info and get them on his side? Seems very familiar...
And having to betray a criminal organization…
Please don’t let Hawks end up like best mom
I hope not, I don't think my heart could take it.
